Service interruption via null-pointer dereference
Published May 13, 2025 · Updated Feb 13, 2026
Denial of service in Microsoft Windows Server Remote Desktop Gateway allows remote attackers to interrupt gateway service over a network. The RD Gateway service dereferences a null pointer while processing attacker-controlled network input, terminating service availability. Authentication and user interaction are not required, and successful exploitation makes remote desktop hosts behind the gateway unavailable.
